Section 4 - Electrical Connections
Ensure that your 234s/234xs or 223s/223xs crossover conforms to the AC power specifications
in your area, by checking the marked voltage spec on the rear of the unit. Never plug the
incorrect voltage into your crossover, as this may cause severe damage not covered under the
dbx warranty. Connect the power cord to the crossover first, then to a power source that is
properly grounded. Never lift the ground as a shock hazard may result.
After you have safely plugged in the crossover, turn on the source device(s). Turn the ampli-
fiers’ outputs all the way down (
-∞
) and turn on the amplifiers. All of the elements of your
sound system should now be on, and the amplifiers should be turned all the way down. Turn
the source device to its nominal operating level, sending a nominal (average) level to the
234s/234xs or 223s/223xs. Slowly turn up the amplifiers’ outputs until you can hear signal at
a comfortable volume. Make adjustments as you desire.
